Abstract: The present invention provides a method and devices for controlling the propagation of Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs) using Surface Plasmon Polariton Band Gap (SPPBG) regions. The SPPBG regions are regions of one or more interfaces supporting the propagation of SPPs on which SPPs experience a periodic modulation of the dielectric properties of the media into which its electromagnetic field extend. The frequency range of the band gap is determined by the period of the modulation. SPPBG regions prohibit propagation of SPPs having a frequency within its band gap.By forming transmitting regions in the SPPBG regions the present invention provides ultra-compact SPP waveguides. The present invention can be utilised to form compact integrated SPP/optical circuits. Also, the present invention provides cavities supporting standing SPP-waves for field localisation. Such field localisation can provide very high field intensities and can be used in various sensor applications.The devices of the present invention provide a number of advantages over photonic components since SPPs propagates on 2-dimensional interfaces, and only confinement in the plane of propagation is needed. This allows for a very simple production of the devices according to the present invention.

Abstract: A power management system permits power-reduced operation of selected circuit blocks in a manner that requires no modification to other bus-coupled circuit blocks attempting to communicate with such selected circuit blocks. Consistent with one embodiment of the present invention, the approach is implemented in a digital electronic circuit arrangement having an accessing circuit block coupled to a clocked circuit block over a data bus. The clocked circuit block is power managed by decreasing, e.g., reducing or blocking, the clock speed to the clocked circuit block which impedes its ability communicate over the data bus. Once the clocked circuit block is set in a reduced power mode, the bus is monitored for data-access communications from the accessing circuit block to the clocked circuit block. In response to such a communication, a substitute response is generated on the data bus, directed to the accessing circuit block, and the clock speed to the clocked circuit block, is increased and brought out of the reduced power mode for further communications with the accessing circuit block.
